中新网10月15日电 国务院台湾事务办公室15日举行例行新闻发布会，有记者提问：赖清德在所谓"双 十"讲话中声称，将打造所谓"台湾之盾"防空系统，要将台湾防务费用提高到GDP的3%至5%。对此有何 评论？ 国台办发言人陈斌华表示，赖清德当局顽固坚持"台独"分裂立场，为一党私利，妄图"以武谋独"，大肆 挥霍民脂民膏，大搞"全民皆兵"，把台湾民众绑上"台独"战车，是对台湾民众安全与利益的最大威胁。 其甘当美国军火商的"提款机"，将本可以用来改善民生、发展经济的钱浪费在购买武器、讨好外部势力 上，不仅买不来"安全"，还会加速把台湾推向兵凶战危的险境。祖国统一大势不可阻挡，"倚美谋独"注 定失败，"以武谋独"只会加速自取灭亡。 ...

不过，中方并没有回应特朗普的请求。中国之所以对美国大豆失去了兴趣，主要原因是特朗普对华加征关税，削弱了美国大豆的竞争力。对比之下，巴西大 豆免税，价格较美国低10%-15%，同样的，阿根廷也在9月22日取消了大豆、玉米、小麦等农产品的出口税。没了中国订单，美国豆农正一筹莫展。然而， 就在这个时候，赖清德当局出手了。9月30日，他在接见美国农业部贸易及对外农业事务次长林德柏格时宣布，台湾打算在未来四年购买100亿美元的美国农 产品，主要包括大豆、小麦、玉米和牛肉。 9月30日，赖清德会见美国农业部贸易及对外农业事务次长林德柏格 我们知道，台湾作为一个以山地为主的省，可供发展农业的土地非常有限，农业相当脆弱，一旦美国农产品进入台湾市场，台湾本地农业将遭受灭顶之灾。 赖清德对此不可能不清楚，然而他选择为美国雪中送炭，帮助特朗普政府与中国大陆打关税战的做法，引发了本地民众的强烈不满。岛内媒体强调，赖清德 这是要把台湾的农产品当"献礼"送给美国，进一步掏空台湾。100亿美元采购清单，等于每位台湾民众要承担近4000元新台币的成本。 今年秋季，美国农场主迎来一场大丰收，但他们的脸上看不到喜悦。在往年的这个时间段，中国作为 ...

自8月以来，台湾地区的经济困境随着美国对台"20%+N"叠加关税政策的持续发酵，急剧加剧。 岛内许多企业因成本上升、订单萎缩，纷纷陷入了困境，减班、无薪假成为了常态，许多中小企业面临生死存亡的考验。 台湾地区本来是一个高度依赖外部经济的地区，但与美国的关系一向复杂且微妙。如今，台湾地区不仅依赖美国市场，还要以大规模采购美国农产品为交 换，换来美国的"好感"。如此交换是否真的值得，台民众难免有些疑虑。 美国的关税政策，尤其是"20%+N"叠加关税，已经让台湾地区众多企业深陷困境。台劳动事务主管部门的数据显示，"无薪假"人数大幅攀升，这直接反映了 美国关税对台湾地区经济的冲击。根据台湾地区商业总会的调查，受到影响最大的包括机械、五金、自行车等行业。 这些传统产业大量依赖美国市场，如今却因美国的贸易壁垒而面临无法承受的压力。 这个时候，赖清德当局的表现却让许多人大跌眼镜——面对压力，不是反思应对策略，不是寻求多元化的国际经济合作，而是屈服于美国，签署了与美国未 来四年采购3000亿新台币（约合100亿美元）农产品的协议。 一个"农产品采购协议"，背后藏着什么？ 从新闻报道来看，这项协议是为了扩大台湾地区对美采购农产 ...

Core Viewpoint - The recent failures of the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) in the recall votes reflect widespread public dissatisfaction with its governance, particularly under Lai Ching-te's leadership, and highlight a disconnect between the party's actions and the electorate's interests [1][2][3]. Group 1: Political Dynamics - The DPP's attempts to utilize the recall system for political gain, rather than addressing actual incompetence among officials, have undermined the legitimacy of the process [2]. - The DPP's actions have transformed the recall mechanism into a tool for party conflict, rather than its intended purpose of addressing individual misconduct [2]. - The DPP's focus on political maneuvering during a time of economic hardship has exposed its prioritization of party interests over public welfare [2]. Group 2: Public Sentiment - Public dissatisfaction with Lai Ching-te's administration is evident, with a TVBS poll indicating only 28% satisfaction and 55% dissatisfaction among the populace [3]. - The DPP's political actions, including perceived "political persecution," have led to a climate of fear and discontent among the Taiwanese public [3]. Group 3: Cross-Strait Relations - Lai Ching-te's administration has intensified cross-strait tensions through policies that restrict exchanges and promote a confrontational stance towards mainland China [4][5]. - The DPP's economic policies, particularly those aimed at "decoupling" from China, have adversely affected Taiwan's economy, especially in sectors like tourism and agriculture [5]. Group 4: Economic Implications - The DPP's restrictions on cross-strait exchanges have led to significant economic repercussions, including a decline in tourism and disruptions in trade with mainland China [5]. - The push for increased investment in the U.S. at the expense of local industry, particularly in the semiconductor sector, raises concerns about Taiwan's economic independence and resilience [7][8].

Group 1: Renewable Energy Policies - Lai Ching-te's administration has been criticized for pushing renewable energy initiatives like wind and solar power, despite Taiwan's energy challenges and public dissent [3][4]. - The DPP's "green energy" policies have been labeled as corrupt, with allegations of benefiting party insiders through contracts and inflated electricity prices [3][4]. - Trump's recent comments labeling renewable energy policies as a "century scam" have intensified scrutiny on the DPP's energy strategy, contrasting sharply with Lai's pro-renewable stance [2][5]. Group 2: Political Implications - The DPP's reliance on U.S. support for its independence agenda is questioned, especially in light of Trump's criticism, which undermines Lai's narrative of external manipulation [4][5]. - Public sentiment in Taiwan reflects frustration with the DPP's approach, as citizens perceive a disconnect between the government's policies and their economic realities [3][4]. - The article suggests that the DPP's strategy of aligning with U.S. interests may ultimately backfire, as it fails to address local concerns and could lead to political backlash [5].

Group 1 - The Taiwanese government faces a significant increase in tariffs, with a new 20% tariff on top of existing rates, leading to a potentially disastrous "20%+N" tax burden on local industries [1][2] - Key sectors such as textiles, petrochemicals, steel, and machine tools are expected to be severely impacted, with the machine tool industry facing a combined tax rate of 24.7%, exacerbating competitive disadvantages against South Korean and Japanese products [2][3] - The Taiwanese government's response includes a commitment to increase investment in the U.S. by $400 billion, which is equivalent to half of Taiwan's annual GDP, indicating a willingness to spend taxpayer money to appease U.S. demands [2][3] Group 2 - The Taiwanese administration's approach of yielding to U.S. demands has not resulted in favorable outcomes, instead leading to increased pressure and unfavorable treatment compared to other trade partners [1][3] - The lack of transparency in negotiations, with claims of confidentiality, raises concerns about the effectiveness of the talks and the potential negative implications for Taiwan's economy [2] - The ongoing reliance on U.S. support while neglecting to strengthen cross-strait relations may lead to further economic challenges for Taiwan, as the government continues to pursue a confrontational stance against mainland China [3]
